However, the club’s sporting director has explained the incident and declined to give it too much importance.
“I do not think this is an entertaining topic,” Sabatini commented to Roma Radio, before being prompted further.
“The reality is that the players were allowed a few hours off by the club. Perhaps some took a little longer off, but we are a liberal club. Nothing happened.
“After the result in Manchester the team needed a little distraction and they did it in friendship and together.
“We are happy that the team wants to get together to do something enjoyable.”
